Available in Sage 50 Premium Accounting and higher.
The Period Income Statement Compared With Two Budgets report compares period income and expenses to two selected budgets. It displays five columns: current period actuals, current period budget 1 amounts, variance for budget 1 and actuals, current period budget 2 amounts, and variance for budget 2 and actuals.
When you display or print a financial statement, Sage 50 displays the following options:
- Dates: You have the choice of a range of periods, current period, or current three periods. If you select a range, use the From and To list boxes.
- Budget: Select the budget to use for this report.
- Account Segments: You can use
the Account Segments fields to limit the totals that appear on your financial
statement to particular departments, divisions, or whatever other segments
you have set up. (Sage 50 Premium Accounting and higher) Each segment of your chart of accounts will appear and
you can select a particular segment by using the drop-down lists. If you
do not want to limit the totals on the report, simply leave the selections
set to All. With this setting,
your report will show totals for all accounts, even those that do not
match the account segment structure. This field can also be used as a
sub-filter for a financial statement that is already filtered.
For instance, you may have a statement that filters for a single division yet includes several departments. You can use this field to further filter for a single department. Should you inadvertently set up filtering that eliminates all data, Sage 50 will display a message warning you of this situation. Tell me more about Account Segments.
